how much of that is science and how much of that is just numbers is a big question. it is hard to pull apart all those different glasses of polls. i fully understand that. i think the burden is still on the media to do a better job of trying those distinctions or lease topping to guide people if the only numbers available are from polls that have a less than clear methodology. all polls -- no poll is perfectly accurate. we all face challenges in getting a sample of americans, but at the end of the day the main polls you hear about, whether it is pew research or gallup, they are transparent about what they are doing and they allow experts to evaluate the methodology going on. a lot of other polls that you hear from frequently, the rasmussen poll, nobody knows how they are done. the methodology is internal and hard to deconstructs with the numbers came from. i'm not saying they're being made up. but they are not providing analysts the tools to evaluate what is going on. >> one more question -- you had your hand up, sir. >> you suggested there was a shift happening in t
